Adagio Water Features Facts
Origin of the Stone
All stones are quarried and shipped from India. The stones of India are renowned world-wide for their beauty and elegance. Every stone is hand cut and its edges chiseled to perfection making each Adagio water feature a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Because no two stones are alike, each fountain is an original. Therefore, each stone will vary in color, texture and thickness compared to what is pictured. The remarkable multicolor stone can vary in its range of greens, reds, golds, and rusts.
Metal Hood and Tray
All copper components are fashioned from high-grade copper mined from Kennecott Copper Mine located near Salt Lake City, Utah. The unique marble-like finish is burned onto the copper one piece at a time by skilled artisans. A clear finish is then applied to the metal to protect the copper from naturally turning green over time.
Installation
Fountain installation requires two people. Before installing, we recommend installing an electrical outlet in the wall directly behind where the stone will be placed. Fountains can be installed on many types of walls, including cinder block and metal stud walls.
Electrical Requirements
Although not required, we recommend installing an electrical outlet in the wall behind where the stone will be placed prior to installing the fountain. Doing so is more aesthetically pleasing as it will enable you to keep the electrical cord hidden from sight. Place the electrical outlet near the center of the stone. For the double and triple stone water fountains, the electrical outlet should be placed behind the left most stone as you face it on the wall.
If you choose to install an electrical outlet behind the stone, we recommend wiring it to a wall switch that will enable you to easily turn your fountain on/off without having to use the included on/off switch.
It is not necessary, but if you would like to control the lights and the water flow separately we recommend installing an additional clock box outlet behind the stone. This is for the re-circulating pump and should be wired to a separate switch. For the double and triple stone fountains, an additional clock box outlet should be installed behind each stone.
Water Usage
The water feature acts as a natural humidifier and therefore requires one half to two gallons of water per day depending upon the setting, climate, size and usage. We recommend only using distilled water.
Maintenance
To protect the copper from discoloration due to hard water deposits (if distilled water is not used) and from turning green over time and for easier clean up, we recommend applying car wax to the copper splashguard and tray once a month. Stainless Steel components may be cleaned with Lime-Away. You may apply 1-3 drops of bleach to the water as needed to avoid algae growth and unfavorable odors. Never use more than this; too much bleach will dull the stone.

Filling Water Tray:
The biggest maintenance requirement is keeping the water tray full of water. Because of
evaporation your water feature will put moisture into the air. The amount of use and the
climate will determine how often you need the fill it. Be sure the water level stays at
least above the top of the pump and no more than one and a half inches from the top of
the tray. Filling the water tray any more than 1 and a half inches from the top can result
in water going over the top of the plastic liner and leaking onto the floor. We also
recommend filling the water tray when the water feature is turned off.
To avoid almost all cleaning and to prolong the life of your water feature, we strongly
suggest using distilled water. This will not leave hard water build-up on the stone or
metal.
Cleaning Metal:
When it is time to clean the metal portion of the water feature we recommend using a
non-abrasive cleaner with ammonia in it. Most window or glass cleaner works well.
Dull Stone:
Over time, if your stone color dulls or you begin to accumulate hard water buildup, turn
off the pump and scrub the stone vigorously with a firm bristled acrylic brush. This
should remove most of the build up. If it does not, the stone may require a more
aggressive cleaning with Lime-A-Way or CLR.
Flow Water / Algae:
If your water feature is in direct sunlight or near a window or door that is often open the
stone may begin to grow algae. This manifests itself as a slight slime on the stone or a
foul water smell. The best way to combat this is with a few drops of bleach once or twice
a month. We can not emphasize enough the importance of using only two or three drops
at a time and never more than once a week. Too much bleach will bleach the stone and
create an uncomfortable chlorine smell. The use of too much bleach will void all
warranties.
Full Fountain Cleaning:
We recommend doing a full fountain cleaning once or twice per year. This will involve
removing all the water from the water tray and cleaning it out, scrubbing down the stone
with an acrylic brush, and taking apart the Water Distribution Unit and cleaning it.

Comments about Adagio Whispering Creek Wall Fountain:
1) Trouble getting water to totally cover stone each start-up. Need to run pad over baffle to get it going and then fine.
2) Coincidentally calling about the motor today. Making horrible coughing/grinding sound. Totally obliterates any calming effect of water trickling sound.
3) Wish I had set up to have lights and pump on separate line so could have lights on without pump. Would seem something to consider in design of product in first place. Looking at using a wireless remote outlet but can't find one that would fit behind top cover.
